In the novel, Flame Mountain is an big abstacle in Xuanzang's path, until Monkey King Sun Wukong, his most famous disciple, borrows a magic fan to extinguish its flames and clear the way. Flame Mountain was named for its red sandstone, conglomerate and mudstone. Under the scorching midsummer sun it truly appears to flame.
